Sheridan, WY

I’ve been having parasthesia ( numbness, tingling) on the top of my feet at night in bed. Goes away when I get up in morning. Just wondering if related to the lymphoma as I also have sjogrens. Thanks

The tingling and numbness you're describing at night does sound like it could be related to your follicular lymphoma. When lymphoma or its treatments affect the nerves, it can cause something called peripheral neuropathy — which is exactly what you're describing: numbness, tingling, burning, or weakness.

The tingling and numbness you're describing at night does sound like it could be related to your follicular lymphoma. When lymphoma or its treatments affect the nerves, it can cause something called peripheral neuropathy — which is exactly what you're describing: numbness, tingling, burning, or weakness.

Some common neuropathy experiences shared by MyLymphomaTeam members include:

- Intense pain that disrupts sleep
- Tingling and numbness that worsens over time
- Sensations that persist even during remission It's really important to bring this up with your oncology team, especially since the symptoms appear at night and affect your sleep. They can help determine whether it's linked to your lymphoma, its treatment, or something else entirely.

Don't wait too long on this one — neuropathy can sometimes get worse over time if left unaddressed, and your care team will want to know about any new or changing symptoms.
